Grateful to the FDL poster the other day who linked to Guiliani’s anthrax clean-up business - not a joke and connected it with the death of the National Enquier reporter who was murdered with the miltary grade anthrax for printing photos of the bush daughters drunk and rolling on the floor and who has been speculated as having Victor Ashe and Bush in the coffin together at Yale photos. the guiliani cleanup crew destroyed the archives.</p> Looks like Guiliani is not what he seems either.

Is creationism the opposite of evolution? The term devolution is sometimes erroneously used to refer to the evolution of a species into more primitive forms such as Barbara.

For anyone to ‘misunderestimate’ George W. Bush is to commit the most gravest of fatal errors.

It is just too easy to catch each of GWB’s verbal gaffe as his every word is recorded and endlessly parsed over however, the problem is that the left and websites like this have been lulled over the past six years into believing that this man is somewhat of a dullard.

This is exactly the image that BushCo. culls, grooms, promotes and targets you all as buying into. Folksy gaffes by the way that GWB and friends within his base laugh at and could give two bits less if you all stew over them or not. Plus, they fully understand that it wastes valuable time/energy for the those in the opposition to concentrate on this type of non-issue.

One truth is for certain as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow… GWB definitely is not stupid as is proven by his ability to front as bagman in carrying out with relative ease/ unchallenged the neocon agenda he has been charged with. Tax cuts for the wealthy, establishing corporate hegemony with astronomical profits/margins, global warfare in Afghanistan, Iraq and soon to be Iran, unprecedented war profiteering/ treasury thievery, ease with which he has silenced dissidents, trashing the US Constitution… just to name a few of his numerous wildly successful programs.

As GWB has moved his highly organized/ meticulously planned agenda forward unabated and at breakneck speed you all have wasted time arguing about his perceived lack of mental capacity.

In reality when you look at the events of the last six years and what this man has accomplished who really is the stupid one GWB or you all?

Mojique smells the wind that comes from far away
Mojique waits for news in a quiet place
He feels the presence of the wind around him
He feels the power of the past behind him
He has the knowledge of the wind to guide him…on.

Margot,

I think his inarticulateness played into the whole “have a beer with” meme. He was one of the masses, and he emphasized his “yokel, I’m just one of you” character with these missteps and malapropisms.

Which is a mind-numbingly stupid criterion for choosing a president. *I* want a president who is so smart that he/she/it intimidates the fuck out of me.

Exactly.

Oh boy are you on the money, spot on I would say if I was English..so I’ll put in to the vernacular of my youth-Right fucking on Sister
